Timmy

Here's a story, bout a kid named Timmy he was 17
Selling pens, started with just one he loved the smell of green
Stubborn too, he didn't take BS they thought he was hella mean
Couple friends, they weren't down to ride but he'd do anything
Had a knife, that made him feel safe when they had tried to jump him
He was smart, didn't walk in the bathroom cuz they would have stomped him
Seeing red, he broke down in class he couldn't even function
Grabbed the knife, he was finna poke if anybody touched him
Had a plan, he would walk his opp down creeping from behind
Grab his neck, he didn't care bout nothing he was gon' do the time
Timmy crazy, he looked like a demon if you seen his eyes
Life is over, his opp would be dead and he'd be dead inside
Timmy's friend, knew what he was gon' do so he had tried to stop him
Timmy said, you don't know how I feel so best proceed with caution
He was mad, he was out control till Timmy's friend had calmed him
They sat on the pavement down together, and they got to talking
Couple weeks, later Timmy cool now he was in his class
Sherriff came, they looking for Timmy, couple seconds pass
He got up, and he started walking they said take your bag
In the office, Timmy had his knife he got to thinking fast
Pulled it out, he was slick he slipped the knife into his lunch
Paper bag, now when they search him he know they won't find nun
Called him in, ain't know what he there for but he gon play dumb
Innocent, whatever they thought he did he's not the one
Sherriff talks, Timmy's being charged with 422 P.C.
Making threats, that's what they got him for out of all the things
Everyone talks like that but he got caught how could it be
Timmy froze, he ain't do a thing but it's a felony
Sherriff said, hand over your bag we finna check your notes
Timmy hoped, that he wouldn't touch his lunch cuz then he's toast
"What's in there?" Sherriff grabs the paper bag he's really close
Timmy says his mama packed his lunch so he don't really know
Sherriff stops, he puts back the bag and says "oh wow that's nice"
Timmy laughs, he gon see this moment when he sleeps at night
Put in handcuffs, he still got arrested but they found no knife
County jail, sitting at the station thinking bout his life
On probation, they switched up his school now Timmy don't know no one
Starting over, had nothing to do but just go through the motions
He was foolish, spent all of his focus only chasing dreams
